PGK2

protein-coding

phosphoglycerate kinase 2

Gene summary

This gene is intronless, arose via retrotransposition of the phosphoglycerate kinase 1 gene, and is expressed specifically in the testis. Initially assumed to be a pseudogene, the encoded protein is actually a functional phosphoglycerate kinase that catalyzes the reversible conversion of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to 3-phosphoglycerate, during the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway of glycolysis, in the later stages of spermatogenesis.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Alhathal et al., 2020 (PMID: 32719396) reported a missense variant in a large male infertility cohort (n=285 infertile man and case–control fertile man). Gene is scored according to ClinGen classification. Moderate with total score of 8. Single-variant analysis (3 points), experimental evidence: Animal model (4 points) and testicular expression (1 points) (PMID: 19759366).

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_138733.5. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
